Let's solve each word problem step by step.
---
Problem 1:
A teacher buys 20 packets of pencils, and each packet contains 15 pencils. Now she wants to distribute the pencils among 60 students. How many pencils will each student get?
#### Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Calculate the total number of pencils:
- The teacher buys 20 packets.
- Each packet contains 15 pencils.
- Total pencils = \( 20 \times 15 \).
\[
20 \times 15 = 300
\]
2.
Distribute the pencils among 60 students:
- Total pencils = 300.
- Number of students = 60.
- Pencils per student = \( \frac{300}{60} \).
\[
\frac{300}{60} = 5
\]
####
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{5}
\]

Problem 2:
Adrian found 20 containers and each container containing 250 toy cars. Now he wants to arrange all the toy cars into small boxes, and each box has a capacity of 20 toy cars. How many small boxes will be needed to pack all the toy cars into small boxes?
#### Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Calculate the total number of toy cars:
- Adrian has 20 containers.
- Each container contains 250 toy cars.
- Total toy cars = \( 20 \times 250 \).
\[
20 \times 250 = 5000
\]
2.
Determine the number of small boxes needed:
- Total toy cars = 5000.
- Each box can hold 20 toy cars.
- Number of boxes = \( \frac{5000}{20} \).
\[
\frac{5000}{20} = 250
\]
####
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{250}
\]

Problem 3:
Emmy has 25 boxes of apples and each box contains 60 apples. She decided to sell all the apples equally to two retailers. How many apples will each retailer get?
#### Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Calculate the total number of apples:
- Emmy has 25 boxes.
- Each box contains 60 apples.
- Total apples = \( 25 \times 60 \).
\[
25 \times 60 = 1500
\]
2.
Distribute the apples equally to two retailers:
- Total apples = 1500.
- Number of retailers = 2.
- Apples per retailer = \( \frac{1500}{2} \).
\[
\frac{1500}{2} = 750
\]
####
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{750}
\]

Problem 4:
Andy buys 300 packets of pens, and each packet contains 15 pens. He wants to distribute the pens among 225 children in an Orphanage. How many pens will each child receive?
#### Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Calculate the total number of pens:
- Andy buys 300 packets.
- Each packet contains 15 pens.
- Total pens = \( 300 \times 15 \).
\[
300 \times 15 = 4500
\]
2.
Distribute the pens among 225 children:
- Total pens = 4500.
- Number of children = 225.
- Pens per child = \( \frac{4500}{225} \).
\[
\frac{4500}{225} = 20
\]
####
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{20}
\]
